She developed an obsession with online shopping. Ever since she had learned how to shop online, she would trawl through the online shops, bulk buying anything she thought was of reasonable quality.
Gu Jinglian had gone to the mall to buy her some clothes, bags, and shoes, luxury goods from brands like Gucci and Christina. However, Chu He abandoned them after having worn them a few times. She could not be bothered to dress up. These designer clothes and bags were often the least practical things. Especially one particular Chanel dress that was made of real silk. The thread ran with a slight movement of her arm.
Chu He despised it terribly. How could such expensive clothes be so flimsy? Even though she knew that people who could afford such expensive clothes would never fuss over such matters, she still despised the idea.
The woman actually complained to Gu Jinglian, being infuriated that she had spent so much time and energy shopping but ended up with a few pieces of garments that she could wear only a few times. After that, Gu Jinglian stopped insisting. Since they were man and wife, they should respect each other.
Respect for one’s pattern of spending was a basic respect. Therefore, after Gu Jinglian and Chu He got married, he gave way to her consumer attitude, and was even gradually influenced by her consumption philosophies.
Generally, Master Gu had become much more down-to-earth. In the past, he would never touch anything that was not a luxury item. Now, he would occasionally wear clothes that Chu He had bought online for him. If they wore well, he would even return for more. After a while, Gu Jinglian got used to wearing clothes that cost a few hundred yuan.
It has to be said that clothes that cost a few hundred yuan, from his perspective, were no different from clothes that cost a few cents, from the perspective of ordinary folks! Anyway… Both of them managed to quite easily adapt to the huge disparity in this aspect.
Gu Jinglian took Chu He’s hand and they walked quietly along the edge of the beach. Gu Linxi initially followed behind them, but when he discovered something new and pestered them to look, he bitterly realized that he had been abandoned.
Whether he called out to Gu Jinglian or Chu He, neither of them acted as if they heard him. They only had eyes for each other and had conveniently forgotten about him.
The boy gave up.
Ah… never mind. Let the two of them be all over each other. After all, it seemed that his father wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to revive the sweetness of their marriage during this honeymoon period.
He decided not to get involved. Gu Linxi was an astute boy, so he left a message for his parents on the cell phone and returned to the hotel by himself.
He was a sensible boy, leaving quietly and sending a message so that they wouldn’t worry about him.
Chu He and Gu Jinglian walked for a long time without noticing he was gone. After strolling for a while, Chu He realized that the person trailing after them was gone. She took out her phone and was about to make a call when she saw the message from Gu Linxi.
Seeing that he had returned to the hotel, Chu He was filled with guilt! She had been so focused on strolling and chatting with Gu Jinglian that she had forgotten about this fellow!
Exasperated, Gu Jinglian said, “It’s okay. Linxi is all grown up. He has his own mind. He probably wants to give us some space.”
Although he said that outwardly, he was secretly gleeful that at least, the kid was astute!
He had heard Linxi calling out to him, but he had deliberately ignored the child. He thought that if this kid had some intelligence, he would leave them alone!
Obviously the child had the sense to know!
That was rather impressive!
